A kid from London that isn't even 12 yet has run pretty much the same time!
"Enfield & Haringey’s Nathaniel Thomas, at the of 11 years 8 months in September ran 11.91 into a massive headwind of 1.8m/sec. To put that windspeed into context, if it had been behind him instead of against, it would only just have been inside the legal limit. It is the equivalent of running 11.64 with a 2.0m/sec wind behind.

And at 200m on the same day, he ran 23.60 into a wind of 0.4m/sec. His 100m time is believed to be a world age-11 best and the 200m time just 0.03 off the age-11 mark, although statistics for athletes of that age are patchy.

To be fair though, that kid is British. He's already got a loser mentality, he'll never win anything.

Nate Thomas apparently comes from London Skolars territory, but he sounds like the perfect candidate for the London Broncos academy. Tony Rea chef.gif should be informed ASAP.

Leeds Rhinos? 8 for you, Leeds Rhinos! You go, Leeds Rhinos. And none for Castleford Tigers. Bye!:d7dc4b20b2c2dd7b76ac6eac29d5604e_1140.jpg



Ah, takes me back to the days of Stuart Chick in the Leeds 'A' team.......

Fast, but did not have a clue what to do on a rugby field.

Former Wakefield player Paul Sampson clocked 10.48 when he was 14, he went on to play for Wasps and England RU as well as representing England in the IRB 7s.

Sampson was 19 when he ran that time in 1996 beating an 18yr old Dwain Chambers (who incidentally held the junior record at 10.06 before Adam Gamelli beat it). Don't know where you got your facts from but the previous record holder for u15 100m was Mark Lewis Francis (10.93/1997) that was only just beaten this year by Owin Sinclair with 10.92 the official UK record for junior Boys

I don't know anything about Chuck Wiseman other than he was American. In RL though he played at least one season at Blackpool Borough and scored 20 or so tries.

More impressively, he married Kirsty Gallagher

To be fair, he did start playing about 15-20 years too late.

Didn't Wesley “2 Scoops” Berry play American football. I think he played a game for Keighley at some point too.
